In case you are using Tumbleweed, then it might be a good idea AFAIU to post to the factory list (for the time being). It would also be good, provided the message comes still up, to list here which updates exactly are mentioned by the app. Besides: zypper up should give you both, updates and patches. Zypper patch give you as output only the security patches. You may run zypper ref, and then zypper patch to be sure you repos are updated. Regards. --- Alle Postfächer an einem Ort.

[opensuse] Plasmoid veromix
by eddie 10 Nov '15

10 Nov '15

I use veromix to switch the audio between my hdmi tv and my computer. I also use it to control the volume level of individual applications. However, since upgrading to opensuse leap 42.1 I cannot load or access it. I don't seem to be able to install or utilise any plasmoids other than the default ones. Does anyone know of a fix for this or is there an alternative program that can easily manage volume control over individual apps.

[opensuse] First experience with Leap 42 on Lenovo G 505
by Albert Oszkó 10 Nov '15

10 Nov '15

Hi all, Finally I gave a try to Leap this weekend. Installation with KDE (replacing 13.2) went flawlessly, but the result is not pure joy. The graphics is, well... de gustibus non est disputandum. I began to use this laptop with 13.1 and finally, suspend now works with 42. As a matter of fact, it worked also with 13.2, but the system could not come out of coma. So it is awakening, but kills the usb2 port, which I use for the mouse. Plugging the device into usb3 it works again. I spent most time with making LibreOffice5 to work and I did not succeed fully. Writer, Calc and Math now seems to work, but Impress and Draw still crashes and lead to reboot automatically. Hoped this is a KDE bug, but the same happened on Xfce. And as always, kdewallet tries to drive me crazy. Did you meet with any of the problems, especially with the suspend libre fault?

[opensuse] Issues with updater Applet
by Lutchy Horace (Mailing List) 10 Nov '15

10 Nov '15

Hi, I got an alert that there were new updates pending installation, then I click 'install updates', and it proceeded downloading updates. However, every 20 minutes are so, I get error from the update applet that it failed to acquire authorization, but I didn't get any pop up dialog requesting such authorization? How can I fix this? In mean time, I've already ran "zypper up", interesting I didn't see any of the listed patches being installed, do I need to run a separate command IE. 'zypper patch'?

[opensuse] kvm and virtualbox
by Albert Oszkó 09 Nov '15

09 Nov '15

Hi all, It is all my fault, I was not careful enough. I wanted to check KVM against Virtualbox, cause I read it is better, faster, etc. So I imported my vbox guests into it. Now I think I would stay with vbox, because it works better on this hardware. The only thing is that I cannot boot the guests anymore. How can I get back them, How to unload, unmount, release, or any other method, to free it from kvm. I tried a few things following and adopting the hints found for ubuntu, but none of them worked.

[opensuse] Can't hibernate (Leap, xfce)
by Carlos E. R 09 Nov '15

09 Nov '15

Hi, After clicking on Hibernate on desktop (xfce), I get the screensaver, but it does not hibernate. So I enter my password, and back to the desktop I see two popup messages. One says: Authentication is required for hibernating the system while other users are logged in. And it wants my root password. Another popup says Failed to run action "hibernate", Did not receive a reply. Possible causes include: bla bla bla. Log shows: Nov 9 03:11:35 Minas-Anor polkitd[843]: Operator of unix-session:17 FAILED to authenticate to gain authorization for action org.freedesktop.login1.hibernate-multiple-sessions for system-bus-name::1.407 [xfce4-session] (owned by unix-user:cer) This was reported as bug years ago, I think by me. Still unsolved, I see. On 13.1 I bypass the issue by typing, as root, "pm-hibernate". But Leap doesn't use pm-utils. What should I use to hibernate, then? -- Cheers/Saludos Carlos E. R.
